My son particularly likes those and will just eat that. They also give you cucumber and limes with your tacos. When I get tacos, the food always comes out quickly. It takes a little longer if you get something like loaded fries, but it's still reasonable. Parking is on the street in front or in back of the truck. You could also park at the gas station and walk over.

I love Sweet Wheels Farm Stand in Summerland. They have been my go to stop every time I'm in town…read moreand I love that they've now found their outdoor storefront to be nestled appropriately between two businesses. They are a cute / covered awning outdoor market - aka food stand. Currently they are open 7 days a week so you have the opportunity to shop their home made bakery good, produce and canned goods. They also have flowers which you can buy by the stem to make your own personal arrangements. Sweet Wheel Farm itself is closed to the public so this is the best way to support them and to get their local goods. You can check out their website for more information about their farming and how they give back to the community. They are simply amazing and after talking to the owner Leslie upon one of my quick shopping trips to her market I felt so empowered by the great work her and her team are doing, also grateful as I learned so many fabulous tidbits from her. Back to the farm stand. I adore them and their selection. They always have the most gorgeous veggies and fruits. What I will admit though is I'm a sucker for their bakery goods and fresh baked breads. Every time I come I have to buy a huge loaf of their olive bread - transports me to Italy or Spain everytime I eat it. Definitely my favorite item them sell here. Recently though I tried their apple muffins and brown butter chocolate chip cookies. Both were great but the cookies were fabulous! I need to leave with more next time because they were devoured by the family within hours. When in Summerland you must support this local farm stand and take some time to learn more about their farming and the amazing work they are doing for our community and food sensitive population. 5/5 stars all day long and I'll be back soon. Promise!

The best Santa Maria BBQ in Santa Maria? It very well may be…read more The Filipino Community Center opens its doors during the weekends and serves mouthwatering, tender, smoky, and delicious barbecue. If someone visited me, and asked me where to go for signature Santa Maria style barbecue, I'd tell them to go here. Get the tri tip. Get the chicken. Get napkins, because you may cry. This place is like a local secret. We only heard about it through friends and neighbors we know. They have plenty of bench style seating in the community center. Many people just do takeaway. Is it the best? It's a tough call. But if there was a competition, Filipino community center bbq may be best of 3

Very tasty, delicious BBQ…read more I've been a customer for decades. Just wanted to jump on here and spread the word that the BBQ is at the center. Super delicious flavoring, seasoning and the meat was juicy (I ordered the chicken). You can ask for all salad (no rice) or all rice (no salad). The lumpia takes them about 5 minutes to deep fry on the spot to order. The outer wrapping is nice and lightly crspy; very satisfying with an insanely delicious aroma. Soooo good. Inside was corn kernels, carrot, peas, and ground meat. A little hard to find but not really. Just drive on Preisker and it's the driveway entrance after Boomers nextdoor. Directly across from the firestation. Go inside the center to order and get food. Nice friendly staff. Love it! My favorite. I send my my fam that visits from out of town here and they rave about it too.

He cooks right on the side of the street specializing in Wagyu patties and everything is made fresh. there are tables to dine in which is what we did or you can choose to take to go. Pricing is very fair and they accept cash and electronic payment. Parking in the area is fairly easy. You can find spaces in the neighborhood off the main street if there are none on the main itself. It was honestly really nice to have a delicious Wagyu burger one block from the beach and was a great way to spend a Friday afternoon just getting off of work. I already plan to go back again soon and would highly recommend this spot to anyone.

So with the horrible traffic on the 101 we got there around 11:30, figuring there won't be much left half hour before closing. The location is a private Ranch - looks like it could be used as a wedding or party venue? Anyway the baked goods were indeed mostly gone with the owner Tracy telking us she had sold over 80 scones that morning. But bc there were only 2 scones left and we wanted more , Tracy was kind enough to put some more in the oven for us. We left were a couple bags of goodies - the homemade pop tarts with fresh made jam, Scottish cream scones, lemon poundcake and shortbread cookies. All were delish! The pop tarts though.... omg ... soooo good. I could eat these every day. $5 per item and worth every calorie ....yummmm!

We were welcomed by the warmest and friendliest smiles of Oscar/Glenn and Denisse. Oscar asked if we wanted coffee and because we had already had coffee earlier we decided to split one. I'd say it was pretty good coffee. We also tried the pop tart and the quiche. We thoroughly enjoyed both! The pop tart was so tasty! We bought 3 more! And a pie. The bakery farm stand is part of their home which you can imagine set for a very homey and comfortable experience. My husband and I played bocce while we were there. Oscar gave all the credit to his wife Tracy who does all the baking with the help of Denisse. We will definitely be back when we are in town. I feel honored to be the second review of the Bakery Farmstand. Thank you Glenn, Tracy, and Denisse for a beautiful experience.

This taco stand may be set up on the side of the road but it serves some of the best tacos and…read moreburritos I've had in all of Los Angeles. The burritos are an incredible value. For around $10, you're getting a burrito that's practically the size of your face and packed with flavor. The carne asada is the star of the show. It has an amazing char, is perfectly seasoned and tastes fresh every single time. The atmosphere is great too. Good music, friendly staff, and a hardworking crew that always seems to have a smile on their faces. They have a self serve toppings bar with plenty of options, and while some people may be hesitant about that at a taco stand, everything is always clean and well maintained. I've eaten here many times and have never had an issue. The sauces are absolutely fire. The guacamole sauce, spicy green salsa and red hot sauce all bring something different to the table. Nothing tastes old or like it's been sitting around. Everything tastes fresh and is made with care. This has become our go to spot. We've tried a lot of taco stands and food trucks throughout Los Angeles, and honestly, nothing else has come close.

One of the best al pastor burritos in LA! A friend…read morerecommended it to me and I traveled 19 miles and wasn't disappointed. You could see the freshness of al pastor on their vertical rotating grill and the meat seemed leaner as well. They cut a new batch of al pastor and then they chop it to smaller pieces than you're normally used to seeing and somehow, those smaller pieces preserved all the delicious meat juice inside. The al pastor was very tender, juicy, well-marinated and had the sweet and savory notes in a perfect balance and the guys adding some fresh, ripe pineapple on top was a nice touch! I got served my burrito open-faced, I added the salsa, pickled onion and chopped fresh onions and then sent it back to the crew for the final wrapping. Just a great, tasty burrito that absorbed really well. The quality could really be seen and felt and the $10 price tag was unbeatable. The customer service was very friendly and there is plenty of parking right behind the taco stand on the CVS plaza. Will definitely come again!
